Prayer Request
Our First Prayer Request.....
* This first request comes from a member of the congregation for her Brother-In-Law Mat. He has been told by doctors that he has Melanoma and we need your healing prayers. So keep Mat and his family in your prayer.
Remember that anyone can have the heart to pray for you so the more you share your prayers the more someone can pray for you and after all isnt that the point to give and recieve prayer so that you can watch god moving. So please feel free to send in a prayer request and someone will pray for you!
Prayer Reports
WE ALSO NEED YOU....!!!!!
Do you have GREAT reason to let everyone know about your God!! The God of deliverance and hope. Have you had prayers answered, or have you seen God move in your life? We want to know about God'd mercy in your life so fill out a prayer request form in the footprints section and let us know all about how you held on and believed and He delivered your answer!
....always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. Colossians 4:12
Communion
is about Jesus himself, and how the gathered believers, together and as persons, take on the character and holiness of Him who they love and worship. Communion is Jesus inviting us to His dinner. The Spirit transforms us to bring us into union with Christ. One of our Christian duties is to obey Christ enough to "take and eat". That's not hard to do. Most of us eat bread daily and drink wine regularly. What matters most, though, is relate not to what we do, but to what Jesus did. Jesus sacrificed himself one time over 2000 years ago, and the forgiveness that came to us from that is the reason we need to recognize and become more like Him because of that sacrifice. When we do as He instructed, Jesus promised he would be there. A Christian is one who trusts that and acts accordingly. How does Jesus come to you through communion? "This is my body given for you." From Him, for you.
When you eat it, God looks at you, but sees Christ.
